Every time a new season comes, change is inevitable: a change: in weather, style and even moods. We, as consumers, partake in its constant reinterpretation of the season’s looks and inspirations through referencing (and eventually incorporating) styles from runways, print and television to our everyday ensemble. Indeed, media has helped us a lot in terms of dressing up. In finding our own niche, own style, own taste, and translate it into real life street smart fashion. “There’s an overflowing sense of individualism and identity reflected in the dress styles of the students nowadays,” says Cara, a Clothing Tech graduate. I’d like to think you’d agree with me that students singled out in this article fit the bill. See what our male respondents have to say about our featured fashionistas.
